What’s On

 

Our programme for 2026 started with the Community Governance public meetings programme that informed the consultation presented to St Albans City and District Council (SADC) for review. The Civic Society continues to work with others as part of the St Albans Parish Council Campaign Group, contributing to planning work around assets, heritage issues and cultural events. A final decision on the way forward will be made by SADC in mid-July 2026.

CGR public meeting

Date: 18 January 2026
Time: 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Location: Parish Hall, St Alban and St Stephen Catholic Church, Beaconsfield Road, St Albans, AL1 3RB

St Albans has a Community Governance Review (CGR) currently under way and this will decide whether the city centre needs a local parish/town council. The second stage CGR consultation runs until February 23 2026. The Civic Society strongly supports provision of a parish council (ie a town/city council) for central St Albans. We believe it would play a key role in protecting the character and heritage of St Albans by influencing decisions made by a unitary authority headquartered elsewhere and by managing some local assets and functions.
